Sustainability has been a natural part of our operations and everyday life for a long time. We see sustainability as working towards positive long-term social, economical and environmental solutions and developments; that is our sustainability focus. We consider it to be a never ending job to learn more and continuously improve how to work with sustainability. With 35 years of experience behind us, that has been our way of thinking for many years now.
At every phase
As a long-term owner and developer, we have the opportunity to drive long-term improvements. We gather feedback from every stage, from development to operation, and use it to keep improving our buildings, down to the most minor details. This means we continue to make progress – step-by-step – on our sustainability efforts.
Key focus areas
We have identified six focus areas to highlight our top sustainability priorities for each project and Vastint.
For each focus area, we have outlined our primary goals.

The proof is in our projects
We have developed projects that have achieved over 100 sustainable building certifications. Out of these, many are LEED Platinum, including five of the top ten highest scoring LEED certified buildings in Europe and the third highest scoring in the world.
LEED, BREEAM, and WELL cover a wide range of sustainability-related topics. Sustainable features included in our buildings might differ per building. But in general, in many of our buildings you would find the following: large openable windows and efficient ventilation to provide fresh air and maximise daylight; efficient building installations for minimising energy consumption; public transport nearby; location close to green areas and several amenities such as shops and restaurants; reuse and recycling facilities to promote waste reduction; water usage monitoring and efficient water equipment.
